It's managed and maintained by Registered Trust No. A-193/NSK. GeographyThe pilgrimage is located in the Indian state of Maharashtra. It is {{convert|16|km|mi|-1|abbr=on}} from the Nashik Road Railway station and {{convert|5|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} from Nashik City,[1][2] and is situated on the steep slopes of a {{convert|400|ft|m|0|adj=mid|-high}} hill. The pilgrimage site is accessible via a staircase built in black stone, which leads directly to the temple.[3] The hill has 450 steps, three caves (known as {{'}}chamar leni{{'}}), and several temples belonging to the Digambara sect of the Jains. There is also a sculpture depicting samavasarana (divine preaching hall of tirthankara) on the hills of Gajpanth. HistoryGajpanth is said to be the salvation place of seven Balabhadra (heroes) of the Jain Universal history, known as Vijay, Achal, Sudharma, Suprabh, Nandi, Nandimitra and Sudarshan. It is believed that the saints took eight crores (80 million) of Yadav kings with them from this location to salvation,[4] and that many Jain monks (or sadhus) attained moksha from this hill.[3] See also{{commons category}}
